Torque management? I was talking about heat. When you have nearly a mile of uninterrupted full throttle at the longest point, and lots of full throttle opening at other points on the track (e.g., Michelin Road Atlanta), drivers who can push and have put the car on sticky tires and lots of...

Do these cams retain the computer advance retard, or are they locked?

And 44 of it is in the intake manifold alone.

Probably should not track rotors with holes drilled through them.

Yeah, interested in what the issues are. I have not heard of folks having nothing but trouble yet.

Well, this could be all it is, then. I see others have noticed the smell, too, which is the main reason I posted, to see if others had noticed the same thing.

My oil is 190-195 all the time during normal driving. On the street, I have not managed to get it over 210°

https://www.mustang7g.com/forums/threads/oil-cooler-activation-deactivation.169518/ See post #6: Yes, I do know for sure. The Dark Horse with the oil cooler does have a thermostatic Valve in the filter mount assembly. Although Ford does not announce the temperature of operation, I can verify...

Also, watch how much camber you use on the rear for a track day. There is a balance between turn speed and application of throttle, and the camber setting is not the same for those two. On a high horsepower car, if you like to get on the throttle early, less rear negative camber is desirable...

It sounds like this is your intended use, driving on the street and once a year track, and now you have adjustable camber plates. If I were you (but I am not), I would use the Ford recommendations, and change the setting for the track once a year. Change it back when you are done. It is not a...

I think that is what most persons find, because you do not always drive your car in a straight line. You have to follow the road. You have to turn right at intersections, or turn left at intersections. Think about what shifting two tons of weight around like that does to the outside tread of...

I wonder what the Shelby Extreme Engine Cooling Package is?

I did not realize this. I thought it would be a sealed system.

Nothing on the ground. No trace of leaking coolant. No visible effect on the oil or under the oil cap. I buy my oil and filter but have the Ford dealer change the oil and filter using my purchased oil and filter. The dealer may top off the coolant. I do not know. I think that covers all...

Whew! So at least two other persons have noticed this smell. It is not just me.

No. But if I have never had to add any, why would tracking help? Doesn't it fluctuate?

When a vehicle with 0 degrees (neutral) camber turns, body roll and lateral forces cause the outside tire to tilt outward, resulting in positive camber. This reduces the contact patch, leading to decreased cornering traction, poor handling, and increased wear on the outside edge of the tire. Key...

It cannot possibly turn well. If you put any sort of lateral G force on your car, the car will start to roll. That is just physics. When your car starts to roll, and you have a 0° camber setting when the wheel is static (is this serious or are you just trolling us?), then your tire's...

What are they doing to cool off an 830 horsepower engine when running on the track?
